After weeks of hot sunny weather the clouds rolled in and down poured the rain, thunder all around ad hailstones a half inch in size clattered down, I went to take photos and just as I went outside was nearly hit by lightening!! It was the most frightening thing to happen, the light and the noise was like nothing I have ever experienced before, I ran in with the kitties slammed the door shut and we all sat shivering for a while, I lit the log burner for the kitties had a wee glass of dark red wine and went and did some quilting, by hand as the storm had knocked out the power and the internet.
